| description |
The Naphthenic Acids (NAs) found in crude oil can leads to corrosion problems in
oil refinery equipment, storage, facilities and even reduces the performances of the
oil. In this study, catalytic deacidification reaction was done in order to lowering
Total Acid Number (TAN) in crude oil to below than one mg KOH/g utilizing
sodium thiocyanate with the aid of Ni/Ca and Ni/Ce catalysts. The catalyst were
supported on the alumina through Incipient Wetness Impregnation (lWI) methods
and calcined at calcination temperature of 800, 900 and 1000°C. Ni/Ca and Ni/Ce
catalyst were characterized by using X-ray Diffraction Spectroscopy (XRD),
Brunauer-Emmett-Teller (BET), Fourier Transform Infrared Spectroscopy (FTIR)
and Thermogravimetry Analysis-Differential Thermal Analysis (TGA-DTA) to
study physical properties of the catalyst. The results shows that Ni/Ca (l0:90) AI203
and Ni/Ce (l0:90) AI203 catalyst successfully reduced number of acids in crude oil
to below that 1.00 mg KOH/g. Ni/Ca (10:90) AI203 catalyst reduced TAN of crude
oil from original TAN, 2.80 mg KOH/g to 0.28 mg KOH/g while
Ni/Ce (10:90) AI203 catalyst reduced to 0.65 from 2.80 mg KOH/g at 1000°C
calcination temperature and catalyst loading of 4 bead (0.50%). This proven by
BET results that shows both catalysts have the highest surface area, average pore
diameter and pore volume at calcination temperature of 1000°C that allows more
molecular NAs to enter pores of the catalyst. XRD analysis proposed AI203 face
centered cubic (fcc) was active site for Ni/Ca(l0:90) AI203 catalyst while CeO2 fcc
was the active site for Ni/Ce (l0:90) Al203 catalyst. Stretching of S-C=N
thiocyanate and pure metal oxides stretching modes were detected on
Ni/Ca (l0:90) AI203 catalyst at wavelength of 2075.90 and 567.51 to 468.94 cm-t
respectively by FTIR analysis after catalytic deacidification process which
indicates that there were impurities have adsorbed on the catalyst. The catalytic
reaction was fixed at reaction time of 15 minutes and temperature at 27° C. As a
conclusion, both catalysts can reduce TAN to less than 1.00 mg KOH/g. However,
Ni/Ca (l0:90) AI203 catalyst shows more potential catalyst compared to
Ni/Ce (l0:90) AI203 catalyst since it can lowered down acid number in crude oil to
most lowest value than Ni/Ce (l0:90) AI203 catalyst |
